Meta's latest Manus initiative is sparking notably different responses on opposite sides of the Pacific. Washington's policy circles are weighing the tech giant's move through a lens of innovation and competitive positioning in emerging tech spaces. Meanwhile, Beijing's reception tells a different story, shaped by domestic regulatory priorities and strategic considerations unique to that market. This divergence reflects broader geopolitical patterns where identical technological announcements often land very differently depending on regional policy frameworks and economic interests. For crypto and Web3 participants watching major tech platforms, these contrasting reactions underscore how regulatory environments can dramatically reshape corporate strategy and market opportunities across geographies.

It's just a geopolitical game; once regulations change, the opportunity is gone. That's why multi-chain deployment is necessary.

Hmm... it's the same story again. The US talks about innovation, China talks about regulation, each side doing their own thing.

Haha, here we go again. Americans and Chinese each do their own thing. The technology is the same, but the news is completely different. This is the current situation.

Here we go again with this? Meta talks about innovation in the US, but in China, they have to bow their heads and be obedient—typical double standards. The key is that we Web3 people are the biggest losers; once regulations change, the opportunities are gone.

The attitudes of Washington and Beijing are 180 degrees apart, and this is the truth of geopolitical risk... Once the regulatory framework changes, your position value could drop by 40%, and threshold triggers can happen in minutes.

Damn, the US wants to steal technology, China wants to control data, and neither of them look favorably on each other. Web3 people are happy now; the more regulatory layers there are, the more opportunities there are.

It's the same old story between China and the US. Washington wants to dominate the technological competition, Beijing wants to hold its ground, but neither truly embraces Web3, all for their own wallets...
